Wild in the City

Reifel Bird Sanctuary

Apr 14, 2008 Family life, Outdoors

Yesterday, for the first time in a long while, we managed to get out of the city for a (too) short visit to the boonies. We went with some friends to the George C. Reifel Migratory Bird Sanctuary, in Delta, to breathe some fresh air and do some bird watching on a beautiful sunny day. I don’t think Elliot really notices the birds yet, but he seemed to enjoy the walk on my back (Daddy was handling the camera for most of the way, so I was bearing the load).

And when we stopped for a snack, he had a chance to stretch his legs and climb on something new: the metal fence of a viewing platform.

We had a wonderful day and I can’t wait to go back when Elliot is a little older. Although we may have to tie him up so he doesn’t run after the birds!
